Thoughts

This type of propaganda and dismissiveness of the truth used to work in the early 1900’s. To even try and lie with a straight face on National TV when the entire world can see the truth for themselves in an instant using the computer in their pockets is insane.

I literally saw the truth in real time while he was telling the lie before he even finished it. This story was started before the press conference was over. The clip of his lie was published to Twitter before he finished speaking. The tweets with proof followed seconds later. Cable News had it up in less than 5 minutes. Yet he persists… to his sycophants fainting cheers.

His days are numbered and let’s hope enough people wake up before these two end up occupying the White House.
